If you plan to use this in conjunction with a sirius starmate or sportster you will only get visual artist/song/team alerts. Audio alerts are not available according to Alpine.

Now I can hide my Sirius from prying eyes. Worked the first time. Using a Starmate 5, Alpine iDA-X100 head unit, the imprint KTX-H100 and PXA-H100, and the SC-VDOC1 Sirius doc kit. They all work together perfectly. The imprint and the KCA-SC100 both have Ai-Net input and output jacks. The Sirius screen is now on the iDA-X100 head unit screen so the rest of the stuff can be hidden away.

OK, the Alpine can now “talk” to my Stilleto 2 through this translator box. However, the translation is very simple and ignores many of the Stiletto features including recording. Slightly annoying is that it does not update the channel name upon power up. You can see the artist/song, but must retune the channel to see what you’re listening to (minor gripe).
The cleverness of this unit being external to the head unit is that the translator can be changed out(to support new Sirius features) without modifying the head unit. However, this simple translator is the only one I could find…thus defeating the purpose of the modularity.
